Definitions
- Device for imaging test objects by means of electromagnetic waves in particular for controlling persons for suspicious objects
- the invention relates to a device for imaging test objects by means of electromagnetic waves having the following features:
- test objects are scanned with millimeter waves for detecting persons or items of baggage (hereinafter referred to as test objects) on hidden dangerous objects (weapons, explosives) in order to detect suspicious objects .
- test objects persons or items of baggage
- hidden dangerous objects weapons, explosives
- the test object is illuminated along its circumference successively with millimeter waves, the scattered waves are received and evaluated for a pictorial representation of the test object according to the SAR principle.
- the device described in DE 10 2005 042 463 makes it possible to use a two-dimensional SAR method which enables high resolution in both the X and Y directions.
- the SAR method can be realized without requiring complex antenna driving.
- the invention has for its object to improve a device of the generic type so that it allows improved resolution with less distortion with less equipment.
- the quasi-optical, focusing or defocusing element and the reflector are rotatably mounted about a common axis of rotation at the same angular velocity.
- This construction allows increased opening angles of the electromagnetic radiation. These lead both to an increased scanning range of the test object, as well as to an enlarged aperture of the virtual antenna for the SAR evaluation.
- the distance between the axis of rotation of the focusing or defocusing element and the virtual antenna can be made as large as possible in order to obtain a large scanning area on the test object.
- the arrangement of the quasi-optical, focusing or defocusing element and the reflector in a common, rotatably mounted component according to claim 2 is structurally advantageous.
- the quasi-optical element and the reflector are designed as mirrors.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the function of the device
- Figure 2 shows the rear view
- FIG. 3 shows the front view of a device with a Z-shaped beam path
- FIG. 4 shows the beam path in cross section
- FIG. 5 shows another device with U-shaped beam path
- Figure 6 shows in cross section the beam path of this device.
- the devices shown in the figures are each part of a test device, which is used to control air passengers at an airport. With the testing device, the passengers are checked at check-in for suspicious items such as weapons or explosives.
- the electromagnetic waves used to illuminate the test objects have a frequency between 1 GHz and 10 THz. Preference is given to using millimeter waves with a frequency between 30 GHz and 300 GHz. To receive the reflected waves either the transmit antennas themselves or separate receive antennas can be used.
- the test apparatus includes a platform on which the test object, such as an airline passenger, is located while the control is being performed.
- the transmitting and receiving systems rotate about the stationary test object to illuminate it along its circumference successively with millimeter waves.
- the test object itself rotated on a platform in front of a stationarily arranged transmitting and receiving system.
- the test apparatus contains an evaluation system with corresponding computer power, from which the received waves scattered by the test object are evaluated according to the SAR principle in order to obtain a pictorial representation of the test object.
- the created images are displayed to an operator on corresponding display devices.
- the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 includes an antenna 1, preferably a horn antenna, which emits millimeter waves 2.
- the millimeter waves 2 strike a rotationally mounted, focusing or defocusing quasi-optical element 3, from which they are reflected and at the same time focused.
- the element 3 is a rotating focusing mirror, which deflects the beams 2 in the direction of a reflector 4 and focuses on this, so that the point 5 highest bundling lies on the reflector 4 and is moved along with this along a circle.
- the reflector 4 is shaped such that, in cooperation with the rotating component 3, the surface 6 to be imaged is scanned in a circle, as shown in FIG.
- the point 5 highest bundling, so the reflection point on the reflector 4, has such a small extent that it can be regarded as a virtual antenna, which generates a beam 7 with a large opening angle in the far field. This large aperture angle is required for good resolution using SAR algorithms.
- the generated beam 7 scans the test object to be examined circular.
- the transmitting and receiving system is moved horizontally (in FIG. 1 out of the plane of the drawing) or vertically (in FIG. 1 up and down), so that overall the test object is scanned in two dimensions. If the entire transmission and reception arrangement is moved around the examination object, scanning from different views is also possible.
- the quasi-optical, the waves arriving from the antenna 1 incoming or defocusing element 3 and the reflector 4 are rotatably mounted about a common axis of rotation and at the same angular velocity.
- the embodiments show the preferred embodiments in which the quasi-optical element 3 and the reflector 4 are each designed as a mirror with focusing effect.
- the quasi-optical element 3 and the reflector 4 are designed and arranged so that the falling from the antenna 1 on the quasi-optical element 3 central beam parallel to the central beam of the diverging beam, the leaves the reflector 4.
- the quasi-optical element 3 and the reflector 4 are arranged in a common component which is rotatably mounted about a rotation axis 8.
- the component is connected to a rotary drive, that its axis of rotation 8 coincides approximately with the central beam of the emanating from the antenna 1 beam.
- the axis of rotation 8 thus extends approximately centrally through the element 3 and inclined to the mirror surface 9, as can be seen from Figure 1.
- the element containing the element 3 and the reflector 4 is made of a lightweight, low-inertia material. It contains a mirror surface 9 of the quasi-optical element 3, from which the rays incident from the antenna 1 are focused onto the subsequently arranged mirror surface 10 of the reflector 4.
- the mirror surface 10 of the reflector 4 which rotates about the axis of rotation, thus serves as a virtual antenna for the SAR evaluation.
- the mirror surfaces 9, 10 of the quasi-optical element 3 and the reflector 4 are designed and arranged such that the incident on the quasi-optical element central beam is parallel to the central beam, which leaves the reflector 4.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 show a component which contains the quasi-optical element 3 and the reflector 4 in a so-called Z arrangement.
- the mirror surface 9 of the element 3 and the mirror surface 10 of the reflector are arranged so that a beam incident from the rear (arrow 11) impinges on the mirror surface 9, bundled by this to the mirror surface 10 of the reflector 4 is deflected and then divergent parallel to incident beam (arrow 11) and in the front direction of the component exits (arrow 12).
- the incident beam 11 impinges on the mirror surface 9 of the quasi-optical element 3 and is - as in the embodiment according to FIG. 2 - deflected upwardly therefrom onto the mirror surface 10 of the reflector 4.
- the mirror surface 10 is arranged so that the diverging reflected by it
- the transmission case is described above in each case. Since the beam path is reciprocal, the system works accordingly in the case of reception.
- Send and receive signal separated by suitable components for example, characterized in that the antenna 1 is connected via couplers, circulators and / or an array of polarizing gratings with a transmitting or receiving device.
- the antenna 1 is built up from at least one transmitting antenna and at least one spatially separated receiving antenna.
